The Hobart Hurricanes and Perth Scorchers will go head to head in Match 12 of the BBL 2021/22. In the previous match, the former won for the first time in the tournament against the Sydney Sixers. The squad set a 214-run target and held the opponent to 151 runs.
The Perth Scorchers, on the other hand, have had a strong showing so far in the major tournament. Until now, the squad has won both of its tournament matches. Both teams will be hoping to keep their winning streaks going into this matchup.
Weather
The temperature in Hobart dropped from 17~15°C during the match due to cloudy weather.
Pitch
Although we have already played one game in Tasmania, this is the first match of the BBL in Hobart this year. We anticipate a surface that will aid bowlers, and runs will be challenging to come by. We predict the conditions to favour the team batting second in this game because the teams have opted to bat first in three of the four games they’ve played.
